Verse 1

I saw the nails
I heard the hammer
King of the Jews
Carved into a wooden banner

Verse 2

Made You a crown
Bloodied Your temple
You could have come down
But in silence we both trembled

Chorus 1

You gave Your life
I gave You nothing
You poured me grace
I poured You poison
Still You drank
My cup of shame

Chorus 2

With all that I’ve done
Could I be forgiven
Is there still a way
To enter Your kingdom
I’m just a thief
Beside a king
King of Hearts

Verse 3

I looked to my side
I only had seconds
Please remember we met
When You’re seated high in Heaven

Verse 4

He spoke in a whisper
Looking deep in my eyes
Said son this time tomorrow
We will be in paradise

Chorus 1

You gave Your life
I gave You nothing
You poured me grace
That blood keeps on running
A love so great
You took my place

Chorus 2

After all that I’ve done
I’ve been forgiven
Those scars made a way those
To enter Your kingdom
On golden streets
Beside a King

Bridge 1

King of the poor
King of the lowly
King of the broken
King of the lonely
King of the hopeless
King of the gone too fars
King of hearts

Bridge 2

King of the lost
King of the guilty
King of the misfits
King of the filthy
King of critics
King of the brand new start
King of hearts

Chorus 1

You gave Your life
I gave You nothing
You poured me grace
That blood keeps on running
A love so great
You took my place

Chorus 2

After all that I’ve done
I’ve been forgiven
Those scars made a way those
To enter Your kingdom
On golden streets
Redeemed and free
